🛠️ Specialized Format Support
The tool supports targeted metadata removal from specific file types: JPG/JPEG, PNG, and WebP photos for EXIF data, and non-encrypted PDFs for document info and XMP packets. Each format has a dedicated parsing and rewriting engine that handles recognized fields like GPS
✅ Three-Step Verify Workflow
The process follows a clear inspect-remove-verify sequence. First, metadata is read and grouped by privacy relevance. Next, supported fields are stripped via re-encoding or rewriting. Finally, the output is parsed again to confirm removal before enabling download, provid

FAQ
Yes, it is completely free. All processing occurs locally in your browser; no file data is ever uploaded to a server, ensuring your privacy and security.
The tool supports JPG/JPEG, PNG, WebP images for EXIF data, and non-encrypted PDFs for document metadata. It does not support HEIC, AVIF, GIF, audio, video, or encrypted PDFs.
The website loads a JavaScript application into your browser. This app reads your selected file, parses its metadata, removes the targeted fields, and creates a new cleaned file—all without sending any data over the internet.
Absolutely. The Photo/EXIF tool specializes in stripping GPS coordinates, along with camera model, date, authorship, and other EXIF tags from JPG, PNG, and WebP images.
This feature applies subtle, invisible pixel changes to an image. It prevents reverse-image search engines and file hash matching from identifying the cleaned image as the original, adding an extra layer of privacy.
Yes, the AI Metadata tool can remove C2PA credentials, generation parameters, and other provenance tags from AI-generated images, with an option to also reset the image fingerprint.
Yes, you can process up to 25 files at once, with each file limited to 25 MB and a total batch size of 150 MB.
After the removal process, the tool automatically re-inspects the output file using the same parser and shows a comparison, enabling a 'verified' download state only if the targeted fields are cleared.
Support is limited to formats where metadata structures are well-documented and can be safely parsed and rewritten in a browser environment. Complex or proprietary formats require specialized software.
The main tool accepts both photos and PDFs. The specialized pages (Photo/EXIF, PDF Metadata, AI Metadata) offer focused interfaces and information for those specific use cases but use the same core engine.
